Ed Kennell 35,907 #126 Posted February 28, 2016 Yeah, I was out raking stones in a Tee for a couple hours but the wind just kicked blowing in some cold air again. I still wonder if she bailed out when that limb hit the nest or just stuck her head under her wing? I checked the nest when I came in and there is a perfect shadow picture of the camera on the tree just now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 14,924 #128 Posted February 29, 2016 I didn't see it happen, but it looks like between the two of them, they moved the offending stick. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 35,907 #130 Posted February 29, 2016 I think you are right Bob. That limb was restricting the nest area and making it more difficult for her to turn the eggs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 35,907 #131 Posted February 29, 2016 I just looked at the camera#1 time lapse for Feb 29, and you can see she was moving the limb to the side. No pic when she actually chucked it out of the nest though. Maybe Craig caught it. I thing he is recording camera#1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 35,907 #132 Posted March 1, 2016 She just brought in two fists full of new straw and changed places with Poppa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 38,989 #134 Posted March 2, 2016 We were out to lunch this past Sunday at a place on Cayuga Lake. Lot's of geese ,swans and ducks in the water. A Bald Eagle came in and made a bee-line for the ducks. Word got out and all the ducks scattered in different directions. The Eagle finally landed on the ice and just sat there thoroughly pissed! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 35,907 #139 Posted March 9, 2016 Beautiful 65F morning in the nest, but Momma looks distressed. She's panting like an overheated dog. Surely she can't be too hot. I wonder if this is part of the incubation process in keeping the eggs in the proper temp range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 35,907 #146 Posted March 21, 2016 I do check on her 3-4 times /day. If mother nature is correct, the first egg should crack on Wed. I'm like a new father in the waiting room. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
